This section describes Delaware’s strides towards continuous economic improvement and includes the following: Unemployment Statistics State Government Financial Position Delaware’s Financial Overview Excellent Debt Management 4 2017 DELAWARE DATA BOOK Unemployment Statistics Delaware remains an above average performer in comparison to the national economy; Delaware’s economy continues to exhibit resiliency and remains highly competitive.
